About the role of notes

It seems to me that we underestimate the role of small notes. Now I'm reading an interesting article about Thomas Edison. He is a great American inventor, the author of more than a thousand inventions. The peculiarity of the «style» of the work was that he transferred almost all more or less important details to paper. After Edison's death, it turned out that his diary has 5 million pages.

5 million is a very large figure. It turns out that he wrote more than 160 pages a day. In principle, it is quite realistic, because most likely Edison entered individual phrases and ideas on a piece of paper, and did not fill it from line to line.

It is claimed that Edison was one of the first to start using contact lists, To-Do lists, etc. The presence of a large archive of documents required him to develop a storage system by folders, topics, dates. Now that we have computers at our disposal with search as we type, this task looks simpler. :)

And even now, when computers, laptops, PDAs and mobile phones surround us everywhere, paper notebooks are not dead. Moreover, many of them become iconic — for example, Moleskine.
